This isn’t a new concept to anyone here. But for the first time the left and right can look at the same video and observe two completely different things. Leftists unironically believe ICE extrajudicially executed a woman. New footage has emerged that clearly shows it was a justified shooting. This country is officially fucked in regards with relations between the left and right. A rift has formed between the two that will never close. Do you think we are in for BLM riots 2.0?
Side note: notice how the MSM will use the photo of the lady before she shaved her head and became a crazy leftist
Scott Adams, even though he's had his moments, is right about what's going on. The left and the right-- more accurately the collectivists and the individualists-- are watching the same screen and seeing two different movies. It's what Orwell talked about when he discussed "bellyfeel", "crimethink", and "duckspeak". A member of the Party has to be able to feel what is correct, refuse to let false thoughts into their head, and speak without conveying ideas.
Close but they're not even watching the same screen. Their movie is highly curated and framed, they're not looking at any video other than fits the narrative.
The problem is leftists are exposed to only a certain set of facts from sources they trust and since they trust their media it allows them to discount any other facts they might get exposed to.
For example, in the ICE incident NPR described her as "sitting in her car".
She was sitting in her car - fact. She also tries to run over an ICE agent - fact - but when you point that out they think "well NPR didn't say that and I trust NPR more than you so you're a nazi and always wrong about everything".
Ironically that just makes them trust NPR even more.
She was also "sitting in her car", stopped perpendicular blocking an arterial road and purposely impeding federal agents in the act of carrying out their duties. Conspiring with others & crossing state lines from 350 miles away.
